sloth: I dunno - responding to a (non-insulting) question with destruction of property and a challenge to fisticuffs is pretty assholish behavior.

He was following him around with a camera trying to get a free Chris Rock appearance on whatever BS program he was representing. That's way out of line. Rock is not a politician. If you want a celebrity to give you their time for a political interview for your program you ask them and then pay them. You don't ambush them.

Sure it's out of line - but is it destruction of property and a challenge to fisticuffs out of line? Just walk away from the moron, or call the police on him for harassment.

You might even call it, "attempted theft of services".

Before the cam went wobbly he was pursuing him.

Then after that, for all we know he just tumbled his own camera around to make it look like he was being roughed up. There was no sound of any assault going on. Cameras don't just instantly go deaf mute just because they get bounced around a little bit.

mcbotulism: Where would uppity negro Chris Rock get the ridiculous idea that Tea Baggers are racist??!!?

Craziness, I tell you!

You cannot prove that a group is racist by pointing to a few racist members - if things worked that way, I could just point to the fact that clearly the Democratic Party is racist due to things like Senator Byrd, the behavior during the West Virginia 2012 Democratic primary, etc. Likewise, the Democratic Party also hates homosexuals because Fred Phelps. See how dumb that argument is?

kswheels: Fred Phelps is a Democrat? What the f**k are you babbling about?

Yes, Fred Phelps is a Democrat. He was a big supporter of Gore Sr. and Al Gore up until he got on a political ticket with that known homo-lover Clinton, and he's run for office himself a couple times. Did you really not know this?

No, no, no, no, no. You're supposed to say that the racist signs were all being displayed by evil liberal infiltrators posing as Tea Baggers, trying to make those Real Americans look bad.

From what I understand from my friends in LA, this guy has had people accost Chris Rock for months. He's been building toward this. Apparently Rock is considering filing harassment charges but it's a huge pain in the ass, too.

I have a hard time figuring out how to properly use the word "racist" these days, but I do think there's some fire behind that smoke. 73% of Tea Party supporters agreed with the statement "blacks would be just as well off as whites if they just tried harder", as compared to 33% of Tea Party opposition.

Maybe the Teatards are correcting for other factors, and the opponents are not?

THIS

It's on Breitbart.com, assume it's a lie, that much hasn't changed with the motherfuckers's overdose death

sloth: I can't find where he defines how "racial resentment" was measured, beyond saying it was a four-item scale.

I'd bet it comes from the EGSS, which asks respondents whether they agree with four statements (I mentioned one already: "blacks just need to try harder"). The other three are whether historical discrimination has made it more difficult for blacks to get ahead, whether blacks have gotten less than they deserve, and whether blacks should be able to overcome discrimination the way other ethnic groups have, without any additional assistance.

Mmmkay, so one question about historical awareness, and three questions of "Do you think people should be able to be successful through hard work regardless of race."

The fact that you produced this link right away is a perfect example of why I love you, btw.

Cool scale, bro.

1) Do you love puppies.
2) Do you love America.
3) Do you love Apple Pie.
4) Do you love beating your wife.
